Point Insertion from HL2 in L4D2

The Ferox · 07-08-2012, 04:35 AM

Hey everyone,

I recently got into L4D2 mapping, but I didn't want to start my 'career' with a map completely created from scratch. So I started Half Life 2 again for a good map or chapter that I could port. I found the first chapter really fitting for a Left 4 Dead 2 map, and so I started working on porting it.

I am still at the very beginning of converting it into a fully playable L4D2 map, but it ran without any errors when I started it up.

Here's a video of what the map looks like (so far) in L4D2:

As stated in the video the map is in 'pre-alpha', which means that I still need to do a lot of work. Since the people in the mapping section on l4dmaps.com and left4deadforums.com don't seem to be that active, I thought it would be a better idea to post a thread here and let you guys give me some feedback. I really appreciate any feedback! Do you like or dislike the idea? Do you have ideas/tips/questions? Please post them here so I can take them into account when working on the map.

Thanks in advance!

I would suggest not starting a video with the 'word' HAI if you want credibility

Looks neat, keep on it. Should be really fun when it's done. Next time you make a video, please don't bunny hop all the way through it. It's really annoying.
